Charell Anderson
I was born
and raised in Slaterville. I graduated from Weber High School. I am the
youngest of eight children. Before I was born my Dad was blinded after getting
some barb wire in his eye. Because my Father was blind my Mother did most of
the raising of the children. I was married to the best guy in the whole world!
We were married for 35 years. I worked
and retired from Morton. We have five children, four boys and one girl.
I was a
foster parent for over fifty children. When my youngest was two weeks old they
brought me four other new babies to care for. We set up two cribs and put a
baby on each end of the cribs. Our baby was in the bassinette by our bed. The
best part of fostering babies is that I was able to buy them cute little
outfits so they would look nice to meet their new family! I spend hours in the winter crocheting and
making baby blankets. In the summer I spend time planting and weeding my yard. I have a strong belief of my Heavenly Father
and know he has helped me through some harrowing times! I am very thankful for this Ward as I know I
could not stay in my home if it wasn’t for the help I get, especially from my
home teacher.
